Graham Henry takes us through the skill of tracking an opponent well. If you can put an opponent in a position that best suits you, you are more likely to make your tackles.

Tracking and correcting sightings focus I feel is a fundamental concentration focus for defenders. Well delivered and simply explained.
Ver y este video para alguien que está comenzando su estado de entrenador en mi caso me parece estupendo a como utilizar bien los factores claves
PLEASE TRAUIRE EN FRANçAIS MERCI ALAIN
What a Legend Excellent coaching skills Thanks
Great information and drills. Thanks
An unrivaled master: simply exceptionally clear
The best explanation on tracking I have seen,very informative and easy to understand.
RFU guidelines prohibit contact in youth rugby until 2 weeks before the season commences. However the superb “Tackling and Tracking” skill drills leading up to the full contact tackle can be used in the weeks prior to full contact to help prepare young players to quickly move into “full tackle” mode when allowed to do so. I will be using these drills with my U17s in our next training session prior to full contact under RFU guidelines. Excellent presentation by the Master.
Un ejercicio muy bien explicado, para poder ponerlo en practica y sacar provecho de el.
Thanking you Graham…… Is there any chance of getting videos on Maul defense and attacking maul set-ups? Thanks Love “The rugby site!!!!”
spectacular I loved the video great advise
Are those… TJ Perenara, Lima Sopoaga and Julian Savea ??
Excellent drill & principles, suggest mentioning; 1) driving forward from legs into contact 2) tackler transfers their body weight into & at point of contact 3) teaching that all tackles should finish with tackler regaining their feet and looking to attack & turnover the ball.
I am an American football coach. I like the drills shown and learned the hands-in technique
Good, simple stuff that’s easy to understand.
It is cool
really good instructions
Great training video by one of the greatest. I think I spy a young Lima Sopoaga and TJ Perenara in that training squad also. Great how Sir Graham builds it up from the very basic techniques.
incredible the focus in specific skills, so easy to learn and teach
El subtitulo en español seria muy importante para llegar a America toda
Excellent

Awesome Instructive video, Excellent breakdown in all areas of tracking, tackling and safety of your players. Also love the constant emphasise on the importance of winning the race to the gain line to make ground. Cheers!
Excellent, good clear instructions with good demonstrations, I learnt a lot and can’t wait to pass the knowledge on at training!
Fantastic instructive ..
This will help me lot and like the ideas and the way explain Saminda Silva Sri Lanka
Puede ser que no lo pueda ver en español?
Very instructive, very well made, good presentation
Awesome series, the progression is fantastic and easily digested by coaches and players.
Answer to Juan F Roman, Yes That’s TJ Perenara, you might also recognize Julian Savea in there too!
I’m coaching under 11’s at the moment, these are pure gold techniques for kids this age. I like the contact progression, top tips!
is that TJ Perenara??
Provided some positive reinforcement that We are doing the right things in training as a team. This takes the self doubt out and injects some confidence into our coaching techniques. There is a lot of info I use daily that these videos provide.. Very happy I have access. Thanks boys
Wayne is a master at simplifying his ideas. Easy to follow instructions and he never has to tell the players twice.
muy bueno la progresion es perfecta
No me deja verlo en castellano… se podra solucionar???
Have always been a big fan of Wayne Smith love the way he gives intruction very informative and all his activities are game orintated just like him heaps the whole site is great.
Great exercise, I use the tackling square drills very frequently for under 16s and progress to 2 v 2 etc full contact. We also do each guy has to tackle each man in turn keep a score and call it the “Top Gun” trophy, not sure they all get the reference (showing my age) but they love the game and all want to be the guy with the most tackles.
This works really well
Excellent video… good idea for progression from minimal contact to full. Will try this for sure.
muy buen material para trabajar con menores
Brilliant!
great video really enjoy it..thanks.
Excellent video. I learned a lot. Can’t wait for the next video
really enjoy it…thanks.
Very Good…the ablity to interact at different levels is higlighted especially with the youner generation. Humour, cheek, excitement, are some examples of how Sir Graham achieves this…
Excellent and clear, it helps me in my coaching sessions with my U15 and U17.
It is a privilege to see videos like this of Sir Graham. Definitely a rugby god.
thank you Sir Graham, you even smiled a couple of times.
Thank you for your magistral class Mr. Henry.
Excellent
Beautiful feet tight elbows elevated hands Bulls Eyes!!!!…nice Sir coach!
excellent Sir Graham
Excellent and clear. he may make it as a coach someday!
Will definitely use this drill to aid the tackling technique, tracking is all important especially keeping the feet alive! Fantastic
great info.basic but still applies at any level
Execellent video!!! great content but mainly great communication!!!
Very good!
thoroughly enjoyed it – thank you Sir!
Great video, been using with our Under 9s for the last two week. They actually cheered on Sunday when I said we were doing it again and more importantly it has really helped their confidence in their first year of contact rugby.
Great basic technique, good communication, constant appraisals along with player q and a getting the players involved. Along with 3 basic drills that can be used at all age levels
I learnt a lot from this video, mostly about coaching the right body position for tracking and tackling. It was disappointing that no full tackle was shown though. I sympathize for not wanting to bring in too much physicality before a game but it would have added a lot.
Excelente. La sencillez de la explicación, la claridad de los conceptos y la garantía que da verlo a Henry entrenando el tackle nos ofrecen la clave para elevar el nivel de nuestros equipos. Un 10.
Excellent guidance from the guru – has helped plan my coaching on this – recommend
